Can you prorate? I.e. give the pirates the service but on a first-come first served basis, basically allow them to use one server if the capacity allows, if not, display that "free version has limited access". All paid customers are on separate servers, with great service, and your additional costs are minimal. And pirates can use the app and convert to paid customers once the delays/notifications become a showstopper for them.
